To achieve the goal the economy needs to address two main objectives: first, the economy requires a transition to the innovation-based development, and, second, the rate of food import substitution needs to accelerate. All this determines the strategic objective of the national agroindustrial complex (AIC) development – to increase the efficiency of production in agriculture. The article contains the cluster approach to the development of agriculture in the Republic of Altai. The authors propose five agroindustrial clusters to implement at the regional level and determine perspectives of their development.
